    The first day I have a xbox 360 I put my madden 07 game in and its running, im as happy aas a little kid. I tilt over the 360 to see the back and hear a scratching nose.
    I call xbox they say all it takes is a few seconds and your game is gone. So I basically messed up my first xbox 360 game on the first day :(

    but when you buy a 360 don't you get warranty or something?

    The 360 is fine its the game when you tilt it when the game is running it onyl takes a few seconds to scratch the game and mess it up for life

    Jeeeez, thats a major bug with it, you check to make sure theres no warnings about it in the instructions and then phone em and demand a replacement. If there is a warning tell them its not clear enough and demand a replacement. If they still say no just say nintendo will be getting your custom from now on :D

    page 11 but who reads the manual anyway. Didnt have the problem with my xbox, plus why say you can use it both ways anyway, i just press start and move it vertically, literally i heard scratching for 2 seconds and the disk was finished. It literally takes 5 dollars to put some rubber or something to hold the disk from contacting the plastic, mircrosoft is so lazy.

    no one!! reads the manual!! :mad:

    it should be at least a BIG 'OL warning included with the packaging alerting you to the defect, which I consider that to be!

    not even a 'Disk Doctor' would fix the disc???

    I've seen some gnarly DVD's in my day and the DD has worked wonders

    no kidding!! especially with an item such as this, maybe what, 1% look at the manual and that would probably be for a connection issue!!
